Briefings
In this work we present two unit-level decommissioning schedules that are aligned with a Paris Agreement compatible CO2 emission reduction pathway. Both of these schedules require 4.2 GW of coal capacity to be retired each year, and units currently under construction would only be able to operate for four years at the most.
Briefings
Climate action announcements at US President Biden’s Leaders Summit on Climate, together with those announced since September last year, have improved the Climate Action Tracker’s warming estimate by 0.2°C. End of century warming from these Paris Agreement pledges and targets is now estimated to be 2.4°C.
Briefings
This briefing outlines why long-term strategies are a fundamental component of national climate policy architecture, and how Small Island Developing States can benefit from developing one.
Reports
This report presents domestic emissions pathways required to keep to the Paris Agreement’s 1.5°C limit for five countries: Viet Nam, Philippines, India, Indonesia and Japan and assesses if current 2030 climate targets are in line with these pathways.
Peer-reviewed Papers
This study uses spatial econometrics to account for the interdependencies between the subnational EU regions to estimate the future impacts of changes in temperature on sectoral labour productivity under the Paris Agreement.
Working Papers
The Climate Council's report “Aim High Go Fast” provides a very compelling and strong case for urgent rapid emission reductions, both globally, and for Australia domestically. However, there are fundamental scientific issues with the arguments brought forward in the report, specifically in relation to the argument that “we can no longer limit warming to 1.5°C”. Here we present a point-by-point rebuttal of the most important scientific shortcomings.
